The Highest-Protein Bowls at Fishbowl, Ranked
Fishbowl's poke bowls are naturally high in protein and lighter than a burrito, and because you build your own, it is easy to push protein much higher. Below are the highest-protein options, ranked using the official data behind our Fishbowl calorie calculator.
The single highest-protein order
Fishbowl lets you add up to two extra proteins on top of your main protein. Build Your Own with beef brisket, then add a second beef brisket and miso salmon, for about 75 g of protein for roughly 985 calories, the most you can pack into one bowl. Open this loaded build in the calculator to see the macros or trim it down.
For a more sensible bowl, a custom bowl with double poached chicken adds about 18 g of protein for only 84 calories per serve, and the ready made Chilli Chicken (Large) is about 40 g for 672 calories.

How to build a high-protein Fishbowl bowl
- Light base. Mixed leaves or cabbage instead of rice or glass noodles saves the most calories.
- Poached chicken or beef brisket as your protein. The leanest per calorie.
- Add up to two extra proteins. Double poached chicken is about 18 g for 84 cal, or stack two lean meats for a big boost.
- Go easy on mayo drizzles and crunch. They add fat and calories, not protein.
